AFTERSHOW

Burning bridges
Cutting ties
Call it what you like
Taking steps
To repossess
The heart I thought was mine

Moving on
Making plans
Moving you aside
Running blind
In the dark
Where the innocent collide

CHORUS
Don’t ever try to find me
It’s better you don’t know
I’m putting it all behind me
Basking in the aftershow

Taking charge
On my guard
Don’t step out of line
Step too lightly
No-one knows
Stood there all the time

Can’t believe
I ever thought
You’d be there anyway
The only fool
In Christendom
Who ever thought that way

CHORUS
Don’t ever try to find me
It’s better you don’t know
I’m putting it all behind me
Basking in the aftershow

In the aftershow confusion
We were still a double act
Pretending the solution
Was different from the fact

CHORUS
Don’t ever try to find me
It’s better you don’t know
I’m putting it all behind me
Basking in the aftershow

Strutting blindly
Head held high
Avoiding the trap door
Don’t look down
It’s only ground
I’ve fallen down before

Fly direct
Into the sun
Heart is in my mouth
Read the lips
Of the eclipse
Blocking all this out

CHORUS
Don’t ever try to find me
It’s better you don’t know
I’m putting it all behind me
Basking in the aftershow
